    Stains that won't budge. Help!

    a lot of sellers on the VCA boards said they swear by Biz too.Do you use it asa regular detergent? Do you let the garments soak? I used color safe clorox bleach, and it lightened the yellowing around the neckline of a dress, but it's still there. I'd appreciate any tips on the Biz stuff.

    Stains that won't budge. Help!

    Unbelievable! I tried my bleach pen on the floral dress, because the stain is on the white of the dress, and it only get slightly lighter. Could it be bacause the fabric is wet? Should I let it dry? I might move on to white vinegar and dawn because I have two other dresses with stains that...

    Chanel adptation?

    Wow! Very interesting. So I'm thinking for a 1920s Adaptation Chanel, $995 is reasonable. Although I don't have the money. :mad:

    Chanel adptation?

    The dress is a day floral, very 1920s, quite lovely and in excellent condition. It's another sellers item, not part of VFG, so I do not feel comfortable posting the link or picture without permission.

    Chanel adptation?

    If a 1920s dress has, what appears to be, an authentic Chanel Adaptation label, what does that mean? Is adaptation worth $990??? The dress in question is not mine.

    Best Cameras-trouble with PowerShot A540

    Hi everyone. Thanks for all your tips. Right now I am using Reveal bulbs, but maybe my new camera doesn't like them. I will try again with a higher ISO. The camera has a ton of features, that I never needed with my Coolpix. The pics themselves aren't grainy, the viewer is. My pics are...

    Best Cameras-trouble with PowerShot A540

    I may be posting this in the wrong category. Sorry. Please feel free to move it. My husband bought me a new camera for my birthday in September. I have yet to be able to use it correctly. It's a Canon PowerShot A540. The LCD is kind of grainy, my old Cool Pix was much better. But what...

    What kind of fur?

    No it does not shed. Maybe it's a good kind rabbit? LOL.

    What kind of fur?

    I honestly don't know. It does have a grey root and it has various shades mixed throughout, black brown with silver tips. Very soft and fluffy and short. Most of the rabbit I;ve seen is either long and flat pelts or has very distinct wavy feel, if that makes sense.

    What kind of fur?

    I did, and I'm the same way Deborah. I know rabbit when i see it. That's why I'm not convinced this is rabbit. It doesn't feel as flat as rabbit does, if that makes sense. Sandra

    What kind of fur?

    I'm so bad with furs, but I love the feel of this collar. I really don't think it is rabbit. It feels lighter, not as dense as rabbit. But I could be wrong. I was thinking maybe chinchilla?

    DVF This one has me stumped!

    I have this cardigan set put away, because I have no idea what I have. I haven't seen anything like it. It is a very loose knit, crochet I guess? with metallic rainbow threading throughout. Both the tank and the sweater have the same label. Any guesses, clues? Is it rare? Did someone...

    Lilli Ann 40s? 50s? 60s?

    Hi. Ihave this Lilli Ann, but I really don't think it is 60s as the label on the Label Resource page would indicate. It has a nubbly wool crepe feel, it has one of those National Recovery Board labels, but the asymmetrical waist line, big collar and sleeves do not say 60s to me. Could it be 50s?

    weird super mod pierre cardin

    Yes! Definatley RESERVE price. You mght want to do more research before you sell it. I know that label is highly collectible, and anything prior to the 80s Cardin is very desirable. Good luck.

    Can you help me date these bags?

    I would venture to say that the first one is celluloid. Does it seem delicate, fragile? I have a few bag books I can recommend. Let me get the titles and I will post them here. Sandra
